A TREATISE ON horticulture horticulture BY 9 sayers SAVERS horticulturist no 17 CULTURE OF THE RHUBARB OR PIE PLANT there are two distinct varieties of rhubarb the elew rheum palma tum or hand shaped and ahe abe rheum ponti cri cym or triangle bayed the first is known as the turkey Rhubarb and th the e roots are cured ia in its native country turkey for medicinal purposes the icum is the variety cultivated in our gardens for do domestic me cookery of 0 this there are several varieties I 1 wh which ich have been produced from seed all of which require bisely the same treatment for seedlings in this locality the victoria is the best AM all the different varieties virlet les ies axe are extremely hardy the roots bearin beaning bearing agthe the most severe winters in inthis this ahls latitude without injury when properly managed CULTURE T the tha h e plants rants require a deep rich mellow jhoil soil to roa roam I 1 into 0 which should be dui dug deep and a quantity of well weil rotted manure mixed in before planting t out the ro ats rhubarb is a very gross feeding plant and requires much nutriment to grow into a good perfection jn in poor meg meagre ground reground the stalks are always small tou tough h and unfit for use the more luxuriant the stalks are grown rohi the more tender juicy and palatable they will be when ihen used in cookery I 1 PROP propagation rhubarb is increased by two tw 0 methods first by JV eed seed and secondly by dividing the roots seedling plants are to tobe be preferred to cuttings or dividen dividing the crown or main root for the reason that a seedling has the top or crown of odthe the root entire takes better belter hold of the ground and ind makes a good plant th the first year of planting whilst a cutting or 0 part of a crown requires at least oae one season to make new roots and form into a good plant the practice of 0 dividing roots is however necessary with the giant and other large gr growing OVIng varieties that do not produce seed and have to be e increased by dividing of roots sawing tue TUB geed SEED the ile seed should be sown as ag soon as it is ripe and not allowed fa t become too dry before planting 0 indeed it always germinates best bast when taken flesh fresh fresh from the plant and iown down sown dimmed immediately lately into a bed of rich mellow ground with a good portion of well ivell rotten manure mixed therewith the bed should be b kept moderately moist and the plant pant be kept in a good healthy growing condition for final transplanting 0 by the 18 t of november rhubarb should always alays be planted in the fall before the close of winter by doing this the plants will bewell be well weil established in the ground and make a good start early in the fe pring OUT THE BED having 0 the ground well prepared mark ark off the bi hills is ifs in ro rows ws 4 feet apart each way take I 1 out a few spades full fuli of earth to each and fill it up with a compost of half halt well weli manure and half of good q mellow loam and if a portion or sand ban san d is anix mixed ed therewith the better having living I the hills bills prepa prepare 1 i the th e plants may be inserted one plant in the centre of each hill bill being careful not to plant too tod deep daepo the I 1 crown or top of the root should be a little below the surface or level of the ground ahen winter closes it will be well to co cover ve r over the top of the plant with a little well rotted manura to tot preserve it itt through the 4 winter I 1 lna ift the ibe spring the bed should be either forked i lor or spaded ovel over to make maliq tho the ground loose and i mellow 1 THE GENERAL CULTURE of the pie plant ia Is simply to keep th the ground in 3 gid god mellow n keep down 9 the tiie wields d s tallow

to b be dug into the ground in the spring 1 I earlyn early i the spring it is a good method to cover the crowns of the plants a fesz few inches with old tanners backor bark or light rotten manure in ln order to forward the young shoots it also has a tendency to make the stalks crispano cri crisp and tender the ground should be regularly irrigated while the plants are I 1 in I 1 n a growing grawin state being careful always to keep the croll croft crown or 6 top ofte of the plants a little above the level of the surface in order that the water may not soak into the heart which often is the cause of the whole plant rott rotting irig care must also betaken betoken be taken not to permit the plants to b become acome too dry which is often the cause of the plants wilting and sometimes dying indeed the plants are very tenacious of too much water or being bein 11 too dry either of these extremes greatly I 1 injures bjur es rhu atara jbard bard in a growing state it should be a general rule never to pull any stalks the first year after planting which always iv eakens weakens and injures the young plants jl ants care should always be taken never to pull off too many stalks at once so as to leave the crown of the plant too bare which is often injurious to its growth the crown or top of plants of rhubarb should alway be be well sh shaded aided with its orvn own leaves to be in a healthy condition r r tse USE OF or PIE fifi PLANT there is no vegetable more extensively cultivated tiva ted nor applied to a more useful purpose than the stalks of green rhubarb it is healthy pleasant to the palate and used by the ho housewife s e either in in p pies ples 1 les ies pud puddings dings diDgs or sauce as a I 1 substitute for for green apples apricots and almost all kinds of green fruit partaking of a similar flavor and cooked in la the saine same manner preparation r itis also readily prepared by simply wash ing the stalks slitting them down the middle middie and cuttin cutting it into pieces about an inch long when it is kit fit fit for use some people take the trouble to take off the skin or rind of the sta stalk ak which is useless if it is crisp and tender indeed the skin cont contains alas aiAs tite tibe best beat part of the stalk having the best flavor 4 preserving AND DRYING t besides the present use of the stalks stalls they can be preserved in the same manner as green a r fruit the stalks can qan alsa also be dried the same as dried appes by slitting 0 and cutting ingv small pieces and drying bryin in the shade WINE MAKING ETC rhubarb is also converted into excellent 4 vyine and vinegar by the same process as is appl appi applied led to currants and other fruits in somi some bome countries extensively it can also aiso be convert ed into the same useful purposes in tb this lter iTer territory il nim JIM THE ROOT noor may also be applied for medicinal pu purposes apua 1 as the rhubarb of the shops shots the only differ ence bein being I 1 that our cultivated rhubarb is not I 1 so pov poi powerful erful and requires a larger dose i the fall is the best time for curing the roots when they have been fully matured they should be tie taken from the ground and clea cleaned ia by hand not washed which takes out a po por r kioa on of the virtue of the root slit down the them middle and laid in a room to dry gra gradually duall duail yep yil when they may be put away for use I 1 i sir jo john ilin III ili hill hlll did nid MD in his excellent work i I 1 the family famil y herbal I 1 says of the rha onti A F rhubarb the root is the tho part used and this I 1 I 1 I 1 is what wha t th the tha e an ancients cleats used under the name rhu rha it is of the nature of rhubarb but different in this that it is less purgative and more

correspondent of the country gentleman IV J rallston of georgetown 11 ohio says that about two years ago lie lle h e chanced to notice an account ina lna in a county paper in relation to a liew llew new kind of pie plant and on account of its earliness large size and great productiveness was induced to try and get a fe few ii seed and test it the ile seed was planted and cultivated as usual the plants three feet high the first year this spring they came cane up some three weeks in in advance of any other kind tind in the garden and consequently were ready for use some time before other varieties this year on the of may they were five to six feet high when the great storm of that date blew most of them down considerably iD juring injuring the crop of seed the stems grow from 18 to 24
